Chapter 42: Retreat to the Forest

Chapter 2: The Retreat to the Forest

With its unique scenery and natural beauty, Mount Nauru has always been a top destination for those who want to be a hermit. Because the Fertile Crescent Moon has been severely damaged, it is already difficult for me to cast powerful spells, let alone what I am doing here? I don't know where I'm going.

The more the tree on the mountain, the more it wants to grow high and bright, the more its roots go into the earth, into the depths of darkness. The soul that longs for freedom stretches out its tentacles and wants to pick up the stars in the sky, but the evil instinct is also longing for freedom. The higher the tentacles of the soul are extended, the more sin will penetrate into people's hearts. The thunder of the warning will surely fall, please do not give up love and hope.

Time flies, time flies, thousands of years, vicissitudes of life, the only constant is the unique element of love in this world. Even though I'm exhausted, I can still feel the sense of well-being. Before I knew it, I was lying down next to an old tree and fell asleep.

I was awakened by a sudden stinging pain, and I saw a large snake wrapped around my body, and the head of the snake was biting my neck. I looked at it, it looked at me, and then it tightened tighter.

"I said, this snake brother, what do you want to do by wrapping yourself around my body and biting my neck?" According to common sense, you don't even need to guess this kind of thing, just shoot it to death, but this is Sefino, and the thought of killing makes me feel a faint pain in my heart.

"You're stupid, of course I poisoned you and ate you. With that, it took another bite on my neck.

"I'm going, I'm still coming, haven't you noticed that your venom is useless to me? Are you really generous, give a gift when you meet for the first time, do you want to take a few more bites?" I glanced at the big snake, and looked fearless.

"It's really useless, it looks like I'm going to have to work for nothing today. With that, the serpent lay on my neck and sucked the venom back, and then left.

The appearance of this snake is not a good sign, in the memory of Sefino, snake, as a low-level creature, generally does not take the initiative to provoke humans and elves, and the snake in front of me will attack me as a regular behavior, obviously the living environment here has become very bad.

I followed the terrain all the way down and came across a small wooden house. Because he had nothing to do, he knocked on the door, hoping that someone would answer, but the wooden door was not locked, and it was naturally opened. I cautiously walked in, and when I saw the new furnishings in the house, I knew that the owner of the house was a very particular hermit.

There was a plate of fruit on the table, and I went to the kitchen to make a cup of tea, sat down quietly at the table, and ate the fruit when I had nothing to do. It is rumored that the hermits are some masters, because they have an epiphany of Hongchen, return to the mountains and forests, and concentrate on cultivation, I don't know what role this great god is, so I can pass the time.

There was movement outside the house, and it seemed that the owner had returned, and of course I didn't mean to go out to greet him, so I simply continued to sit there and nibble on apples. I have to say that Sefino's apple is different from the outside world, because it is rich in life elements, and it makes people feel extremely smooth when it enters the throat, let alone melt into the body.

"Stranger, why did you break into my house and steal my food?"

"Of course, you have to learn to share good things, and you can't be so selfish. With that, I threw away the half-eaten apple and picked up another banana and peeled it.

"But why should I share it with you, and you didn't work for it?" the guy unleashed his scout magic from time to time, trying to get to the bottom of me, but never got the result. He didn't know if I was a master, or if I didn't know any magic at all, so he didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

"Because I am your neighbor, if you don't love yourself, then in order to be confident you should love your neighbor and persuade me to love you. But how do you convince me? Of course, the best way to do that is to bribe me. "Ate a banana, and it's pretty much the same.

"But the point is that I love myself, and I don't think it's good to love my neighbor. Love for those farther away and for the future is higher than love for one's neighbor. I even think that love for things and phantoms is higher than love for human beings. Do you understand what that means?" the hermit walked in, methodically setting aside his tools for going out.

"If you love yourself very much, it's simple, a friend of mine once said to me: love your neighbor as yourself, because your neighbor is you, and you only think of him as someone else in the illusion. So, you are me, I am you, I eat your things, I eat my own things, naturally there is no problem. Do you understand this sentence?" this is Lin Xinyue's words, every time she wants to take advantage, she will say this.

"What kind of logic is that? But it sounds pretty plausible. The hermit seemed to gladly accept this fact, but in fact he did not understand what it meant, in fact he did not even understand the meaning of what he had just said, but I did not bother to pay attention to him, so I sensed that he was walking towards his bed, and said, "I have a fate to meet thousands of miles away, and since I have a fate, I have here the best tea, and Your Excellency should taste it." ”

"Yes, thank you. ”

The hermit went to the kitchen and handed over two cups of his so-called best tea, which obviously had a strong suppressive effect, but he pretended to be calm and handed it to me, urging me to drink it. I just smiled at him and just held his fine tea.

"I'm a scholar, especially when it comes to magic, and I have a lot of research. "The hermit looked very happy, as if he wanted to talk to me freely.

"You can see that you are a very knowledgeable person, and it would be perfect if you could have a little more creativity. Can you put me some more tea, I like strong tea!" I pushed the cup in front of the hermit and looked at his embarrassed face.

"Distinguished guest, it's not that I'm stingy, it's just that in this deep mountain and old forest, this kind of fine tea is really not easy to obtain, or you will just have a little. The hermit smiled and pushed the cup towards me again.

"Stingy. I despised it, consciously or unconsciously, and took a sip of tea to see what he did next. Sure enough, his panicked eyes suddenly lit up the moment I drank the water, and then he happily said that he wanted me to show me a treasure that he had painstakingly collected.

It was a mirror, wrapped in a thick white cloth, giving off an evil aura, and I don't know how this guy got it.

"You can see the outside world through this mirror, honored guest, do you need to give it a try?" the host politely placed the mirror in front of me, and then lifted the white cloth.

"Okay, hey, why does it look like a devil?" The shadow in the mirror is a hideous devil with two horns on his head, which is very low in the underworld, but it is a very common kind.

"Oh, it's not good, honored guest, maybe something bad is happening right now? The hermit suddenly exclaimed, deliberately trying to persuade me to leave.

"Okay, then I have to hurry up, thank you for the fruit, I'll come often. With that, I walked out the door.

Actually, I didn't mean to do anything with that hermit, as long as he didn't really follow me out stupidly and sniped me. However, the guy really thought that his potion had a lot of effect, and followed me for a long time, and finally he was impatiently exposed to me.

"You're really boring, I won't spare you from dying, you still have to come up and die, I really don't understand you. "I leaned against the trunk of a tree and looked at the hermit, who was a little panicked.

"You have been poisoned by my potions, there is no way to cast magic, I see that you are not a swordsman at all, you are not my opponent at all now, if you know each other, hurry up and hand over all the treasures on your body." He urged the staff and orb in his hand, and summoned two skeleton warriors.

"Alright then, you can die. With a tap of my finger, a red light shattered his upper body.

I haven't seen you for a thousand years, Sefino, what the hell have become of you.
